Beta Software

With an eye to several beta programs from IBM for collaboration products over the next few months I’m hoping for some interesting new features to try (these have been well documented elsewhere).  What I really hope is that IBM can learn something from the Office 2007 beta programme.  They allowed users to install this utility to allow users to pass judgement quickly on features and bugs.  Steve commented on this in more detail here.  I hope IBM can do something similar.
